Hi Pat,
Do you have any more knowledge regarding this request?
I was trying to adopt this new format with new macros, but then I found out that it is not so
easy (or at least I don't know how) to change the content in sysusers.d file before it is
processed by the RPM macro processor.
It would be nice, if I can in %prep section modify the sysuser file by e.g. sed, but so far
it looks like that the macro in %pre section (%sysusers_create_compat httpd.sysusers) is expanded
before %prep.
There is a possibility to hardcode e.g. %{nginx_user} into sysusers.d file or %{contentdir} in case
of httpd apache, but if you change this variable in the spec file, it won't properly change in
sysusers.d file.
I'll confess I don't have specific detailed knowledge on this front. I'm mostly going off the fedora guidelines and looking for places to help homoginize the behaviors. (In reply to Jonathan Wright from comment #4) > @luhliari > https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/httpd/-/merge_requests/75 Hello Jonathan, I have similar change ready locally, but from what I know there is no option to use vars/params in systemd-sysusers file. I wanted to have in sysusers file something like: --- g apache 48 u apache 48 "Apache" @CONTENTDIR@ /sbin/nologin --- Because content dir can vary based on contentdir macro value definition on the top of the httpd.spec file: define contentdir %{_datadir}/httpd So far I could not find any way how to process that file before it is processed by %sysusers_create_compat macro.
